Achieving equity in a diverse classroom is difficult but essential in an educational environment. The process of acquiring multicultural competency requires the effort of all involved parties and a willingness to create and operate in a 'community of resoect'. In all subjects this is important, but especially so in ESL and international EFL classrooms. Constructivist pedagogies employing cooperative education tenets and collaborative learning practices are most effective for attaining these ends because of their inclusive nature.
